Meet Akane Torikai – the creator of emotionally complex and poignant manga series, Sensei's Pious Lie.
Torikai’s work is a frank and nuanced examination of the emotional and practical effects of sexual violence, rendering the messy realities in gorgeously refined linework and dialogue far more naturalistic than most manga. The author veers away from blunt indictment to paint one of the most complex and fascinating psychological portraits of both rapist and victim in any medium. Not only just for manga fans, Sensei’s Pious Lie will appeal to readers of graphic novels and literary fiction in general.
